Hamas sent forth the mother of two small children as a suicide bomber, permitting her thus to redeem her "honor" after she committed adultery with a Hamas member (apparently her husband was also one of the brotherhood). Not to be outdone, Arafat's official radio greeted the event enthusiastically, repeatedly stressing the woman's "heroic martyrdom."
At the same time, 28 year old Ro'i Arbel, the father of five (including two month old triplets) was murdered in an Arab ambush near the community of Talmon. The only protest to be heard from the Arabs came from the family of 17 year-old Iyad al Masri, a suicide bomber who managed only to blow himself up. The family complained that that their son was sent on an operation "that had no chance of success" since Nablus was under curfew and their son had no way to reach his target.
WorldNet Daily (Jan. 7) reports the charges of former FBI translator Sibel D. Edmonds who says translators of Middle Eastern origin working for the Washington field office were openly on the side of the terrorists. Edmonds sent a 9-page letter to the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks upon the United States, an independent panel investigating the attacks, detailing the ways in which these translators blocked intelligence and intentionally mistranslated documents. When Edwards brought the breaches to the attention of her supervisors, she was fired by the FBI. She filed a lawsuit which Attorney John Ashcroft and FBI Director Robert Mueller persuaded a federal judge to block by asserting the rare claim of "State Secret Privilege."
